Bing age Twenty-seven in his film debut “The King of Jazz”(1930)

Fun fact: Bing had be arrested for drunk driving before filming so Paul Whitman had him brought to the set, from jail, in in handcuffs everyday to film.

The film is available on YouTube(it doesn’t really have a plot but it’s fun to watch)

Paul Whiteman And His Band In “King Of Jazz” (1930)

King of Jazz is a 1930 American Pre-Code color film starring Paul Whiteman and his orchestra. The film title was taken from Whiteman’s self-conferred appellation. At the time the film was made, “jazz”, to the general public, meant the jazz-influenced syncopated dance music which was being heard everywhere on phonograph records and through radio broadcasts. In the 1920s Whiteman signed and featured white jazz musicians including Joe Venuti and Eddie Lang (both are seen and heard in the film), Bix Beiderbecke (who had left before filming began), Frank Trumbauer and others. There is a possibility that one of the people appearing in the film was the great-uncle of Kurt Cobain (the late vocalist and guitarist of Nirvana).
